With relegation now mathematically confirmed, Monza is focusing on their remaining three matches with the sole aim of not setting a negative points record for a Serie A team. This is a small consolation to preserve the image and history built over three years in the top flight for the Brianzolo club, and to start planning, as stated by the club, for a quick return to Serie A.
To achieve this, they need to secure at least one victory, beginning with the away fixture against Udine.
Coach Alessandro Nesta has a limited squad available, with Luca Caldirola`s injury adding to an already lengthy list of unavailable players. The coach is hoping for Keita Balde`s recovery; alternatively, in attack, the starting partnership of Dany Mota and Gianluca Caprari is likely to be confirmed, having featured in the last three games for the Biancorossi, as they seek a goal, which Monza hasn`t scored since the derby against Como in early April.
